Anyhow, amazing coins Ben, none of which are close to obtainable in the middle to advanced numismatist. These coins are all wealthy only items. However, I’m not hating on that, I commend those who can afford it and appreciate seeing videos like that for those who can’t! Have a Happy 4th gents!

    I'm 65 and been a coin collector 54 years . My 2 best coins are a 1820 dime VF35 and a 1834 VF25 that I won in a high school poker game in the late 70s . My parents had their honeymoon in Reno in 1948 and purchased the CC Morgan silver dollar set . Now the story goes my mother sold the set to her workmate in the sugar company office , around 1960 for face value . I was 2 years old lol . When mom would take me to coin shops in the 70s , she told the owners her story . Not as glorious as items in this video but are tops on my chart

Also, you do realize that you're holding like $6 - $8 million dollars in just a few of those wonderful treasures. A BIG MAHALO to Stacks & Bowers, and especially the Larry dude 🇺🇸🪙🤙🌵🏄🦘🎨

    Super well done as usual Ben. I like how you kept the views and the background very objective with a subject that's easy to become very subjective. At the end of the day, market forces are what they are. While most of us have our personal views, none of us are larger than the market and the view and opinion it beholds. The market always has the last word. I think this piece did a great job of respectfully reminding people that there's forces out there larger than any of us.

    Hi Ben. That 1792 Half Dime looks like it was lacquered at one time. Lacquer was used to protect the coin in the past. The three early 1800s Half Eagles are very cool. The 1830 in 66 is amazing. The 5D/o is neat. I like the 1796 half-dollar. PCGS lists the price at $275,000. 👀BOING! The 1900 Double Eagle with a cameo finish is beautiful. The 1908 St. Gaudens Double Eagle with a matte finish is amazing. It is my fav coin of all the coins you showed. I wouldn't pay any more than face for that gold bar. The 1877 Morgan Half-Dollar pattern is very cool. As you said about the Double Eagle St., the copper Morgan looks like a modern bullion round. I like the toning on the copper. The silver pattern is cool. The 1848 "Cal" Quarter Eagle is sweet. Some say that it is the first US commemorative. It looks to have a slight cameo. Nice! 68* is crazy. The Matte St. would be my single coin pick. Thanks for showing those great coins.

    How did you keep your hands from shaking during this video? I'd have been terrified of dropping them, especially when you busted out that gold brick. Mind blowing to have a pile of small coins and plastic in front of you and each is worth more than most people's houses.
